Thats your response? LMAO. Well there a wonderful argument for putting your birds in danger. Did I read my response, gee, no I just blindly type without actually caring what keys I hit...Brilliant! Did you read my response? I'll type really slow for you this time okay? Children DO NOT FLY! Therefore the dangers to a flighted bird are NOT dangers for a child. Child proof all you want, it won't protect you bird. Owners with a heart? That is what those of us who choose to PROTECT our birds are. That is why we try to protect them. If I was 100 percent sure that my birds could safely have flight in my home, I would let them. But they cannot, so until I either buy a bigger home that can be build to safely accomodate a flighted Macaw, CAG, (or any other bird) and totally eliminate those dangers including double doors all around to prevent accidentally having a bird get outside and killed, or be able to build a large enough safe aviary here, No, I won't leave them flighted and risk being responsible for thier deaths. I hope your luck holds out because if it doesn't, your bird is the one who will pay the ultimate price, not you. You are willing to put your bird in danger, and you call me heartless? -Alison-
